After 20+ years working with men, Iโve seen it time and again: low T is often behind the statin + SSRI cycle.
Optimizing to high-normal with TRT helps many improve cholesterol, mood, and even reduce or drop those meds.

On this Memorial Day, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our nation.
You left behind families, dreams, and futures so that we could enjoy the freedoms we often take for granted. Your courage, selflessness, and love of country will never be forgotten.
Today, and every day, we owe you a debt that can never be repaid. Thank you for your service and your sacrifice. We remember. We honor. We are forever grateful.

Bethany dropped 68 pounds and went from feeling trapped in her body to running 4 miles a day with ease!
Proof that real, lasting change is possible.

WHY SHORT CHAINS OF AMINO ACIDS ARE NATURALLY OCCURRING โ AND WHY CALLING THEM HARMFUL IS PREPOSTEROUS
Your body is literally built on amino acids and short peptide chains. Every day, you consume proteins from food (steak, eggs, whey, collagen, or even vegetables), and your digestive system breaks them down into individual amino acids and short peptide fragments. These are absorbed, circulated, and used as raw materials for muscle repair, hormone production, immune function, and cellular signaling.
Even without eating, your body constantly turns over its own proteins โ breaking down old tissues and recycling the amino acids into new short peptide messengers. Natural examples include:
Endogenous growth-hormone-releasing fragments produced by your hypothalamus
Small peptides involved in tissue repair and inflammation control
Signaling molecules like enkephalins or endorphins โ all short amino acid chains
The peptides we use therapeutically โ CJC-1295, Ipamorelin, and Cibinetide (ARA-290) โ are simply lab-sequenced versions of these same natural building blocks. They are made from the identical L-amino acids your body already recognizes, produces, and metabolizes every single second of your life.
Suggesting that these short chains could cause mysterious long-term side effects is preposterous. It would be like claiming that eating high-quality food or taking a clean whey-protein or BCAA supplement will eventually harm you. Your body doesnโt treat them as foreign invaders โ it treats them as familiar fuel and signals. Peptidases (enzymes that exist everywhere in your blood, tissues, and cells) rapidly break these short chains down into single amino acids within minutes to hours. Those amino acids are either used for repair and energy or safely excreted. There is no accumulation, no toxic metabolites, and no long-term โbuild-upโ the way some synthetic drugs create.
Decades of research on amino acid supplementation (BCAAs, EAAs, collagen peptides) confirm this safety profile. Millions of athletes and health-conscious adults use them daily with zero evidence of long-term harm. The therapeutic peptides in our protocols are the same concept โ just more precisely targeted. When they come from licensed compounding pharmacies and are monitored with labs, they function as next-level, bio-identical supplementation. The fear-mongering usually comes from conflating them with GLP-1 drugs or unmonitored gray-market products โ not from the actual biochemistry.

This powerful trio works across multiple levels: GH-driven tissue repair and metabolism, NAD+-fueled mitochondrial energy and DNA repair, and glutathione-powered antioxidant defense and detoxification. The result is a comprehensive approach that optimizes your cells from the inside out, helping men and women combat age-related decline, enhance performance, and feel their best.

BPC-157 excels at accelerating repair at existing injury sites by strongly reducing inflammation and promoting regeneration, but its potent effects may sometimes blunt the acute inflammatory signals needed for optimal muscle hypertrophy.
Cibinetide (ARA-290), by contrast, offers a more balanced, preventative approach via selective activation of the innate repair receptor (IRR), modulating inflammation without excessive suppressionโmaking it potentially superior for long-term use and supporting muscle recovery while preserving the beneficial aspects of training-induced inflammation.

Cibinetide Acetate - More commonly known as ARA-290
Added this to my program this morning, I gotta say my sciatica pain is literally gone already. Very excited to run this little known peptide.
What it does:
It reduces inflammation at nerve ends, so if you have pain from back or other injuries that is related to nerve pain, this did really well in studies at reducing that pain. On top of that it should do other things like:
1. Reduce muscle pain, it lowers inflammation at the cellular level and eases discomfort from training which should improve daily mobility.
2. Faster recovery from exercise. Reduces oxidative stress supporting faster muscle repair.
3. Enhances rest quality.
4. Reduces neurological inflammation.
My program is all doctor prescribed and each peptide or hormone dosage is designed to bring my levels within physiological range, or a range that a human being can produce naturally. Nothing I am taking gives me supraphysiological levels, or the levels someone would have when taking a steroid cycle.
The idea is to optimize levels so that it is healthy for the body, rather than bring levels up higher than that which could be produced naturally which can bring on unwanted side effects.
So far I have zero side effects from the program.
I will put an article going into to more detail about ARA 290 in the comments.
Shocking 2026 Peptide Quality Report just dropped.
Over 40% of peptides were outside label claim.
Some GLP-1 products had zero active ingredient.
Nearly 13% failed sterility tests.
Almost 20% had dangerously high endotoxins.
If you're using peptides for fat loss, TRT, or recovery โ this is a serious wake-up call.
At IncreaseMyT, we never take risks. All our peptides come from licensed 503A compounding pharmacies under strict USP 797 standards.

Your health deserves better than research-grade roulette.
